The Beauty of Gray Lyrics
8 ContributorsThe Beauty Of Gray LyricsIf i told you he was your brother
We could reminisce
Then you would go about your day
If I said you ought to give him
Some of your water
You'd shake your canteen and walk away
The perception that divides you from him
Is a lie
For some reason you never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colours must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
The beauty of gray!
If I told you she was your mother
We could analyse the situation and be gone
If I said you ought to give her
Some of your water
Your eyes would light up like the dawn
The perception that divides you from her
Is a lie
For some reason you never asked why
This is not a black and white world
You can't afford to believe in your side
This is not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colours must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
Yes we will all get to appreciate
The beauty of gray (x4)
Look into your eyes
No daylight
New day now
Its not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colours must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will appreciate the beauty of gray
Its not a black and white world
To be alive
I say the colours must swirl
And I believe
That maybe today
We will all get to appreciate
Yes we will all get to appreciate
The Beauty of Gray! (x10)
Mirror Song Lyrics
4 ContributorsMirror Song LyricsI know that I should think about giving
And think about
Helping out
And think about
Think about living
But I can't seem to rescue myself
I know that I should think about giving
And think about
Helping out
And think about
Think about living
But I can't seem to rescue myself
What about my bank account
And my holy desert shield
That keep me dry under that arms?
Flags and mental jewelry's all I know
And they keep me happy and warm inside
So I said unto this man
"Who are you and where do you come from?"
And he proceeded to tell me many,many,many,many,many,many,many things
But I said nothing at all
For the flower in the corner, by the room
In the window, and the sun
Said it all
What about my bank account
And my holy desert shield
That keep me dry under that arms?
Flags and mental jewelry's all I know
And they keep me happy and warm inside
At least they said they would
Said they could
Mama Said they would
Do me good
I know that I should think about giving
And think about
Helping out
And think about
Think about living
But I can't seem to rescue myself
Waterboy Lyrics
4 ContributorsWaterboy LyricsWhat do you say to the child
Whose God is in the T.V.?
And what do you say to the man
Who blames the world on T.V.?
They don't even know how to sing my song
But they won't even try it
With me, with me, with me
Who is standing over playing like
The teacher
Harnessing the learned
Who try but can't leave her
I want to beg the liars to lay down
Their sirens
That play like the angels
To my deep desire
Free my son
Let him walk right through the rain
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Free my son
There he stands down on the shore
Free my son
What do you say to the man
Who treats her like a mother?
And what do you say to the man
Who treats him like a father?
"Come and see my heart, come inside
And learn"?
"Come and see my soul, it's like yours
I say it's just like yours"?
Who is making over
Idolizing princes
Banishing the dreamers with
Barbed-wire fences
And telling all the children who run to
Her feet
That they have no vision
And love's all diseased
Free my son
Let him walk right through the rain
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Free my son
There he stands down on the shore
Free my son
Free my son
Let him walk right through the rain
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Free my son
There he stands down on the shore
Free my son
Free him at night
Free my son
Let him walk right through the rain
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Free my son
There he stands down on the shore
Free my son
Free my son
Let him walk right through the rain
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Free my son
There he stands down on the shore
Free my son
Make him waterboy
Good Pain Lyrics
5 ContributorsGood Pain LyricsHe said, he said, he said
"There was nothing to fear boy"
And he said, he said, he said
"Worthless are your tears boy"
"Just realize your senses
And realize your earth
Just relize your essence first"
I'll never know now
I'll never be the same again
I want to walk in the sun
I am alive and well again
No more bittersweet
No more good pain
No more
So many of us stand in the middle
Looking back to the worst
Looking forward to the fall
Making weapons of peace for the defense
Of the bloodstains on our
Peaceful sidewalks
You say the buildings got too tall
And they're going to fry your brother
Well I say you'd better walk away, walk
Away, walk away
And find your mother
No more bittersweet
No more good pain
If I can't sing this song
And tell you all about it
Then I'll just pack it up right now and
Walk away
Don't even doubt it
So when our sherry glass is full
And the day is way too young
You'd bettter sip today, sip today, sip today
Before it's done
No more bittersweet
No more good pain
No more good pain
No more good pain,good pain
No more good pain
No more good pain,good pain
So many of us stand in the middle
Looking back to the worst
Looking forward to the fall
Making weapons of peace for the defense
Of the bloodstains on our
Peaceful sidewalks
So many of us stand in the middle
Looking back to the worst
Looking forward to the fall
Making weapons of peace for the defense
Of the bloodstains on our
Peaceful sidewalks
There's a line we've got to cross tonight
There's a line you've got to cross tonight
There's a line we've got to cross tonight
There's a line you've got to cross tonight
No more bittersweet
No more good pain...
No more good pain
No more good pain, good pain
No more good pain
No more good pain, good pain....
No more weapon of peace, no more good pain
No more sickening sweet, no more good pain
No more famine and sweet, no more good pain
No more good pain
10,000 Years (Peace Is Now) Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The world is burning down
Can't you smell the smoke in the air?
War, disease, and famine
This demon, she is everywhere
Poets and preachers and politicians
They've all had their say
And we got ten thousand years devoted to nothing
But tomorrow and yesterday
Ten thousand years
Woah, woah
[Pre-Chorus]
If all of the ignorance in the world
Passed a second ago
What would you say?
And who would you obey?
I am here to say that
[Chorus]
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now
[Verse 2]
Mr. President, I hereby pardon you of all your crimes
For they are just as much mine
For selfishness and separation have led me to believe
That the world is not my problem
The world is not my problem
I am the world
And you are the world
And I, yes, I am the world
And you are the world
[Pre-Chorus]
If all of the ignorance in the world
Passed a second ago
What would you say?
And who would you obey now?
I am here to say that
[Chorus]
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace must be now
[Outro]
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now, yeah
Peace is now, la-la-la, yeah, yeah, yeah, la-la-la, yeah
Peace is now, la-la-la, yeah, yeah, ah
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now
Peace is now
